Gourmet spit-roasted specials

August 2017 | Lorraine Clarke

THIS YEAR, the Mole Creek area has much to celebrate.  What better way to kiss winter goodbye and welcome the coming spring season than by feasting on sumptuous local foods?

Last year’s inaugural Feast was well attended with 110 hungry patrons, but many would-be feasters were sadly disappointed as they had not realised they needed to book.

The event will showcase the superb range and quality of local produce, which is all being provided by farmers in the district.

Locals are doing all the catering.  “I went into the pub and asked for a sheep,” said Michal Frydrych, President of the local Progress Association. “Three farmers offered me a sheep because they all know how important it is for the community.  People are incredibly generous.  All the local shops and suppliers have come together.  We have been given many items for the auction and prizes.”

The night’s fare includes spit-roasted venison and pork, authentic lamb curry, salads and sandwiches, all for $30.00 per head.

A huge team of volunteers are working in the background to make this year’s Feast even better than last year’s.

Tickets are from the Mole Creek Post Office or Bendigo Bank in Deloraine.  Feast from 5:30 till 11.00pm on Saturday 2nd September at the Mole Creek Town Hall.
